Glasgow Homeopathic Hospital
Glasgow Homeopathic Hospital was a National Health Service hospital in Glasgow specialising in homeopathy. It was later renamed as the Centre for Integrative Care on the Gartnavel Hospital campus,[1] and is part of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde.
As of November 2015[update], it continues to list homeopathy as one of the treatments it provides.[2]
As of October 2015[update], NHS Lanarkshire, NHS Highland and NHS Lothian had ceased to make referrals to the centre.[3]
It has been proposed that the centre may be reassigned to become a new centre for the treatment of chronic pain.[1][3]
History - Originally located in former large domestic residence at 1000 Great Western Road (as was often the case for hospitals at the time. -Similarly, near by Redlands Hospital, Gartnaval Royal, and Erskine Hospital for ex service men)
Plans to build a new Homeopathic Hospital on Julian Avenue (Site now occupied by 'Mormon' church) progressed only as far as architect plans and a drawing of the exterior of the proposed building (A reprint of the drawing can be found in the book 'Along Great Western Road')
The new/current GHH was built entirely without recourse to public funds. (Ie legacies /donation), but became part of, and wholy owned by the NHS as soon it opened. The official opening was carried out by HRH The Prince, Charles, Duke of Rosthey. (Scottish title)
